The beer museum had me thinking of that famous beer drinking song. Hence the title.. The exhibits were nice. And although I had the option of joining a tour group I opted for the do-it-yourself tour. Of course I loved the beer and nuts. But what I really liked was the Drunken House because it was featured on China Central... More

To visit this museum is to pay homage to this world famous beer! When in Qingdao, it becomes a natural choice to visit this very interesting museum, right in the heart of the Beer street. Entrance fee is RMB50, not cheap by China standard. The visit is divided into part A and B. Part A concentrates on the history, the... More

We visited the Tsingtao Beer Museum two days ago and we were pleasantly surprised after reading some disappointing reviews. The entrance fee was ¥50 each (I think this becomes slightly higher in the busy holiday seasons). After being pointed in which direction to go we were free to explore the museum and the grounds. For the majority the museum exhibits... More

The Beer museum is quite exciting. It is a must see place when visiting Qingdao. The tour gives a good history of the Qingdao beer, and you get two free small beers. Also it is located in the Beer Street where there are plenty of delicious restaurants.

I'm quite surprised it only arrives in the second page of things to do in Qingdao. It is not the most amazing visit I've done in China, but if you're in Qingdao, you cannot miss it. It's definitely worth the entrance ticket. Also, you get a free beer in the visit, which is nice, and you can make nice picture... More

Cost: 60 RMB pp for a self tour and 1 small glass of beer and pack of peanuts. Displays in English and Chinese which are good, and informative. Interesting seeing all the different types of beer and the production process and old equipment used. But I am not sure the visit is worth the ticket price. Especially given the high... More

Just today we decided to look at the famous beer factory. Well, it was neither a disappointment, nor something exciting. I've been to some brewries before, and here the guys didn't manage to explain why Tsindao Beer is better than the others. The most exciting thing was that they served the beer in shot glasses (50 ml) and said it's... More

I hired the english tour guide and since I was the only one she kind of rush things. The tour at most was 40 minutes. She seemed like ho hum lets get through... More

Many people around the world have heard of Tsingtao beer but probably don't know where Qingdao(correct romanized name of the city which the beer is named after) is. Thus a visit to Qingdao isn't complete without touring the origins of this famous beer. The Museum is on Beer Street, a colorful and vibrant street full of seafood restaurants. The Museum... More
